Story
Meet Lucky – A Gentle Soul with a Big Heart and an Even Bigger Love for Cuddles!At 10 years young and a perfect 15 pounds, Lucky is all about life’s simple pleasures—cozy naps, belly rubs, leisurely strolls, and plenty of love. He’s neutered, microchipped, and ready to bring comfort, companionship, and quiet joy into your life.Lucky is a mellow little gentleman who needed a little time to decompress. With a patient approach and a calm environment, he quickly settled in and showed his sweet, affectionate nature. He did beautifully with both his trainer and transporter, and even had his ears cleaned without a fuss—proof that with kindness and trust, he’s truly a cooperative little guy.Grooming isn’t his favorite, but with a gentle hand (and maybe a professional groomer), he can still look and feel his best without the stress.This schnauzer mix has been through a lot and deserves a forever home that understands the quiet magic of older dogs. Lucky thrives with gentle, respectful people and will reward you with his loyalty, snuggles, and those soulful eyes that say “thank you.”If you`re looking for a calm, cuddly companion with a dash of quirky charm, Lucky might be your perfect match. He may not be into spa days, but he’s 100% into YOU.

Story
Pierre is a 6-month-old puppy who came to us from a hoarding and abandonment case in Yuma. Because he spent his earliest, most important months without proper socialization or consistent care, Pierre is still learning what it means to feel safe, loved, and part of a family.This sweet boy is not your typical confident puppy—at least not yet. New people, new environments, even simple things like being petted are all still very new to him. But behind that uncertainty is a puppy who wants to trust. With time, patience, and gentle guidance, Pierre is already beginning to show little glimpses of the happy dog he’s meant to be.Pierre’s ideal home is:Quiet and calm, with predictable routinesPatient and understanding, especially with an undersocialized puppyWilling to help him learn at his paceReady to celebrate small victories and offer steady reassuranceHe may need extra time to settle in, to learn what love feels like, and to understand that the world can be kind—but he deserves that chance. With the right family, Pierre will blossom into the loyal, loving companion he’s been waiting to be.If you believe in second chances and have the heart to help a shy puppy grow into his best self, Pierre is waiting for you.

Story
Angel has spent much of his life being overlooked. He came to us from the Yuma Humane Society after spending far too long without a family to call his own. To our knowledge, Angel has never truly known what it means to have a consistent, loving home—and that breaks our hearts.But despite everything he’s been through, Angel still wants to believe in people.Because of his past, Angel carries some deep-seated insecurities. He’s still learning how to feel safe in the world, and he needs someone who can guide him with calm confidence and patience. He’s looking for a person who isn’t just loving, but who can offer the steady leadership he’s never had—someone who can show him that he doesn`t have to be on guard anymore.He’s not the right fit for a home with children or other pets. Angel needs a structured environment where he can truly thrive—where his person is not just a caretaker, but a leader, a teacher, and above all, a friend for life.Angel is an active, playful boy who lights up when he’s outside romping around with toys or exploring the yard. He recently spent two weeks at a board and train facility where he made huge strides. He now walks comfortably on a leash, knows basic commands like “sit” and “lay down,” and has started to understand what life inside a home should feel like. His trainer has generously offered to continue working with his future adopter, giving Angel every opportunity to keep growing into the amazing companion we know he can be.Angel is working every day to be the perfect dog—but maybe you aren’t looking for perfect. Maybe you’re looking for a dog that needs you as much as you need them. A dog who, with patience, guidance, and love, will reward you with a bond deeper than words.Angel has so much potential. All he needs is someone willing to believe in him—someone to give him the chance at life and love that he’s never truly had.Could that someone be you?

Story
Taco’s journey hasn’t been an easy one. He came to us from a hoarding and abandonment case in Yuma, where he didn’t get the love, care, or socialization every dog deserves. Understandably, this sweet boy started out very shy and unsure of the world — but beneath that timid exterior is a truly loyal, affectionate, and gentle spirit just waiting for the right person to help him blossom.After spending time in a loving foster home, Taco learned that people can be kind and life can be safe. Once he trusts you, he becomes the sweetest little shadow — cuddling up to you for TV time, gently pawing his bowl when he’s ready for more food, or snoozing happily in a sunny spot by the window (his absolute favorite place!).Taco is still learning the ropes of being a dog in a home:-He’s working on house training and doing well with frequent outdoor breaks and using belly bands.-He’s not destructive, doesn’t chew furniture, and sleeps peacefully through the night.-He’s not crate-trained, but does well in a blocked-off safe space.-He’s a quiet, sensitive soul — loud noises and new people can scare him, but he never shows aggression. Instead, he’ll just back away or give a big yawn to calm himself.-Taco is learning to walk on a leash — gentle encouragement, patience, and a loose lead help him feel secure.-He knows “come” and responds to soft voices and gentle gestures.Some of Taco’s favorite things?-Peanut butter and plain yogurt-Hard chew toys and bones-Warm sunshine and soft beds-Quiet time with people he trustsTaco will do best in a calm, patient home — ideally with someone experienced in helping shy dogs build confidence. He would love a secure yard to explore and a gentle routine he can count on. As of right now, Taco is considered to be a flight risk. His adopter will need to be aware of keeping doors and gates open, as well as fitting him for the correct harness/collars when it is time to go for walks. *Taco would do best in a home with no children or men*He’s been through a lot, but Taco is ready to keep moving forward — one careful, brave step at a time — toward the forever family who will finally show him what it means to be home.Could you be the one to show Taco the world isn’t so scary after all?
